Holiday Celebrations!

We had a wonderful trip home to visit family for the Holidays!! The first few days we spent with my sister, Amy, and her family in Utah. It was really fun to be with them. While we were there we went to see the lights on Temple Square and then headed over to Chuck-O-Rama for a fun filled dinner! (To say my nephews and nieces love Chuck-O-Rama would be an understatement, they were so excited for that buffet dinner:))

So freakin' cold in Utah

The lights are AMAZING!

My sister Amy and her youngest, Lizzy. This was our first time meeting little Lizzy. She is so cute! 

Buffet Satisfaction, now heading home

 Because we were all heading up to Idaho for Christmas my sister and her family celebrated an early Christmas and let us join in on the festivities! We had a delicious fondue Christmas Eve Dinner then stayed up super late wrapping presents for the kids to open the next morning!

Grayer and all the Berry Cousins after an awesome Christmas morning!

Then we headed up to Idaho for Christensen and Gilchrist Family Parties....

Our first stop was Firth for Grandpa Wayne's (Andy's Grandpa and Grayer's namesake) 85th Birthday Party. We went to the church and took family photos, ate all different kinds of soup, played games, had a Christmas program, listened to Great-Grandma read a story, opened presents, and caught up with family that we hadn't seen in a really long time!

Priceless Picture! 

From Firth we headed up to Idaho Falls for Grandma Baker's (Susan's Grandma) Christmas Party! I didn't get any pictures but, this party was a little different than previous parties because the little kids weren't invited. At first I was a little bummed but it was a party I will always remember because we were all able to catch up with our Grandma, Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins with no interruptions from our little ones. It was really fun!
